i dont think our stangs can keep up....but dont matter..i like the raw-ness of the stang better!

 

you can't compare a $75k car to the mustang.

 

You got that right. The GT-R is in a whole different class of sports car!

 

The targeted competitor for the GT-R is the 911 Turbo S. The Mustang is in a whole other league than those two cars (NA V8/RWD/300 HP vs. twin turbo 6 cyl./AWD/480 HP)

 

hello brothers!

i guess i started this thread cause i'm gonna hear it from some of my friends who will actually get the GT-R and say how they will blow my GT stang away.

thats ok..i'll cruise by them slowly!

 

hear what...my $75k car beat your $25k car?.... doesn't seem like there is to much they could say.

 

Now, once you supercharge your Mustang, you will give him a heck of a run, and could even beat his GT-R with the Mustang!

 

I am sure the GT-R will have the ability to up the boost to 25psi or more safely... EVO-8 and 9's can get to 32psi+ of boost on stock motors and fuel upgrades... I am also sure the GT-R was designed and built with the idea that Toyota may respond with a new Supra! The old Supra's already making 1000RWHP on bone stock motors...

So accept the GT-R will be ridiculous.. LOL!

 

Edmunds has some video of the GT-R prototype along side a 911 turbo and they are saying it was a coupla ticks faster than the 911 turbo at Laguna Seca. A pretty good showing to say the least.

 

Agreed that the nissan is a whole different class of sports car. However, If I had the choice, I'd still take my "lowly little" V6 Mustang. A. I think it looks a million times better, and B. It's American.

 

yes! mustang for sure....

i know its not as luxurious....not as refined...not as fast (unless you supercharge it)....not a status symbol....

but thats exactly why i like it!! its just raw....no frills.....muscular...bad-***!!

 

I just kind of find it funny that the pictures that are taken are in the parking lot of a KFC and what looks like a convience store....not somewhere you'd normally see a $75K car, but where the a-typical ricer would hang out.

 

Corvette Z06 for me please

 

I dont dig some of the lines, but I bet it's gonna be one fast mojo....

that being daid, I still love my 05 Mustang GT better...

 

I agree Jeff! I'm kind of wondering where people are getting these comparisons. I mean I'm not trying to be rude people but let's try to keep the "which is better" section apples to apples here!

 

i thought the mustang was the biggest around?
or am i missinterpreting the meaning of status symbol

 

The mustangs an icon, not a status symbol. Big difference.

 

oo gotcha my bad
then what do you mean by status symbol?

 

status symbol is like buying an expensive car to show off how much money you have.

 

I sure hope the GT-R can beat a stang
